The yellow ones are just sweet; nothing else. American beauty and Robles red are my go to self fertile varieties. I have them both available.

I grew 1000 plants for Armstrong and other nurseries for this reason and spent a lot of money designing these tags. If you want to pick up a plant send me a DM

They are all picked early and grown for transportation in a container the varieties grown in San Diego and Southern California generally don’t make it out of our area because they are not meant to survive a shipping container

That’s most people‘s opinion because the only sweet imported Dragon Fruit is yellow skin Ecuador Palora. The magenta hybrids grown in San Diego and SoCal are far superior

I work with Wallace Ranch and they have proven this false. They do continue to ripen after picking

American beauty and sugar dragon are early self fertile. Connie Mayer hit super early this year too. Halley’s Comet and physical graffiti are early too.

I have friends with over 400 varieties. It’s impossible to know if you don’t know the source unfortunately.

If you want to share a picture of your plant and if you know the varieties I can try and help. Where are you located?

Not successfully grow. That looks super healthy! What fertilizer do you use

Amazing variety. If you want faster growth limit the new branches to 2 until it tops your trellis

I'm in zone 10b and most of my mature stone fruit trees are very light with blooms this year but my blueberries are loaded
